reiiasbooks 's review for:
Truly Devious
by Maureen Johnson
I am soo glad that I was finally available to read this book! Did not disappoint at all!!
MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS, READ WITH CAUTION
I absolutely loved the characters. All the suspicious air surrounding every one of them left me guessing and blaming everything on everybody. Even nice Janelle was suspicious to me when the poor girl only wanted to be with Vi, awww.
The plot is very intriguing, I like the layout of the Academy, I kept turning back to the map to see the distances and the layout of everything that was happening which was a good choice.
The ending is a true teaser, but at that point I was already expecting for David to drop the bomb on Stevie although I did not expect King to arrive (stylishly on a helicopter, what). Sometimes tho I did feel that the plot was moving a bit slower than before and Stevie's emotions took over the plot which might be an interesting narrative point but it took me out of the concentration to solve the murder myself.
I am super excited to jump into the next book as all the reviews I came across said that it is way better than the first one but it's another cliffhanger so I'll be impatiently waiting for it to be January and buy the last book.
Overall very pleased, almost gave 5 starts but I hope that the second one will give me that extra 1 point spark that I need!
